The struggle in query, glimpsed within the movie’s trailer, sees Rodriguez’s character Letty and Theron’s villainous Cipher waking up in a high-tech Frankenstein lap, every mendacity down on neighboring metal working tables. They see each other, acknowledge one another, and instantly spring on each other, wanting to do violence. The bigger context of the scene should be found after the movie is launched. 

In line with the Self-importance Honest article, there was no director on set for this scene. Whereas succesful second-unit administrators could also be current for motion sequences or lengthy, establishing pictures, usually a principal director goes to be current for dialogue scenes and close-ups of actors. Whereas this will likely appear atypical, Rodriguez selected to see it as a chance for punk violence. Why play with a web when you may freewheel? Plainly she and Theron have been so nicely rehearsed, and each completely keen, that they merely filmed their struggle scene themselves. Rodriguez even made a cute reference to the movie that gained Theron her Greatest Actress Academy Award. In her phrases: 

“Can I simply let you know — no pun supposed, however Charlize is a monster. […] We shot our struggle sequence with no director. Bro, like, palms down, drop mic, we nailed it. We have been there, we do not want [a director], let’s do that.” 

That scene, it appears, saved manufacturing comparatively on schedule whereas Leterrier was employed and introduced on top of things. Rodriguez was cautious to credit score Theron for her willingness to movie and struggle as nicely, saying, “We saved that prepare working till Louie got here in and took over. […] And [Charlize] is a consummate skilled, sharp elbows, her work ethic is past.”
